A Pennsylvania city mayor was commmenter on CNN this morning and of course the topic was politics and the 2000 Presidential election.  To my great surprise the CNN Host actually talked about the great economic numbers and how that might help Trump in the upcoming election.  A Democratic Mayor and commentator then launched into almost a tyrade about how the good/great economy isn’t Trumps fault but started under Obama and should be credited to him.

I know what I believe about it and I very much credit (solely) Donald Trump and in great part due to his reversing what all Obama had done and doing away with all the regulations that were killing business.  It’s laughable to even hint that Obama had anything to do with the current economy however it should also be realized that these people actually do believe Obama was responsible and not Trump.  One reason I believe that is the case is most of the media’s reluctance to give Trump any credit at all.   But at least it’s predictable that it would happen.

I believe there are just two words that describe the 8 years of the economy when Ol'bama was the chief executive; stimulation and stagnation. True, it was great for folks invested in stocks, the foreign units of US companies did quite well and speculators bid up stock values, but the Federal Reserve built up a balance of 4.5 Trillion of debt because of Quantitative Easing that didn't really make it into ordinary American's paychecks and the National Debt doubled. In the future some unlucky SOB president will get the blame for the inevitable crash and burn because of the inability of every president and congress since LBJ's time to turn around the welfare state.

Don’t forget all those illegals that are allowed to cross the border that many of the politicians are so willing to allow to stay (and vote).  They will only cause the welfare rolls and food stamp rolls to bulge and explode as they on the “all you can eat” benefit train.
